sixteen years of
Li Hong's shop in a corner of the north of the Yao's old goods market, where she has been in the corner for 16 years.
yesterday afternoon, when the reporter saw Li Hong, she was sitting at the front of the shop watching TV. There were all kinds of second-hand air-conditioners outside the shop. Soon, a customer came in to buy the air conditioner, and Li Hong hurried up to greet him. "I heard that the market is going to be demolished, and it just needs to buy air conditioners to see if the price is down." The customer said. Li Hong told reporters that because of the need to move away, shipping was too cumbersome to sell, and the profits were mostly reduced.
Li Hong, 45 years old, is a native of Jiyang and has been in the market for 16 years. She recalled that before entering the market, he worked in a factory in Zibo, when he was married and the child was only four years old. Later, Li Hong and his husband introduced their relatives to the second-hand market to operate the second-hand air conditioning business. "Not to say that money does not make money first is mainly directed against time." Li Hong said, "my family had two old people and one child at that time.
the old goods market at Yao's home was the first car repair factory in Yao's village. After the repair factory did not do it, the old goods market had been rebuilt, and the old goods market has been for more than 20 years. It is understood that the Yao family second-hand market officially started demolition, will be used to build villager housing and resettlement housing, will not build a commercial complex. Moreover, the area of Yao's second-hand market is intersecting with the widening of Jiefang East Road, and the future liberated East Road will also expand to 30 meters to 40 meters. Reporters learned that from March 23rd to March 30th to sign the demolition agreement, since March 31st, all the houses along the street water and electricity. From March 31st to April 6th, we completed the inspection of houses along the street.
now, the door of the old goods market sees the size and size of the goods, and many merchants have closed the main street on the main street. Most merchants have attached the way to the door, which is convenient for the old customers to find. In the busy streets, there are many customers who occasionally buy things.
unlike peers,
Li Hong, recently they mainly do two things, one is goods, and another is greeting each other.
"take our side of the market to sell second-hand air-conditioning business, many have been working for more than ten years, we have known for more than ten years." She said, "there was no time to deal with the goods the other day. The two days were short, and we chatting with each other whenever we had time." Li Hong said, ask each other where to move next, or gossip, to move away from the mind, so that they can comfort each other.
Li Hong said, "don't look at all of them, but they never have a red eye in their memory. So many years are more like friends and neighbors who help and help each other." here's the main woman here. We sell this big piece, usually there will be a warehouse, and the object is generally over there. " She said, sometimes after the arrival of a person can not make a person, the next person will come to help, sometimes someone is not at home, neighbouring merchants will help cover the outside of the goods and the like.
Ms. Zhang, who used to cook second-hand kitchen business, has been in the second-hand market for nine years. He came to Ji'nan from her hometown in Liaocheng nine years ago. Now nine years have passed, and the merchants around have become friends. When the reporter saw Mrs. Zhang, she was sitting on the chair outside and chatting with the people next to her. Although few customers came, she still wanted to stay here for another few days. "Take the child to our house when you are free." Ms. Zhang and the woman next to it said.
buy is customary
Li Hong said, although now the economic conditions are good, but there are many people to the second-hand market, not only the elderly, but also a lot of young people, "you like a lot of homeowners or two landlords to rent a house will come to the second-hand market to buy air-conditioning, they are mainly for cheap." But some people bought habits, she said.
nearly five p.m. yesterday, an old man looking 70 years old came to Li Hong's stall to ask where the market would be moved and how to sit on the bus. Li Hong patiently answered the old man. "I bought it from the secondhand goods market more than 20 years ago, and sometimes I would come around and get used to it." The old man said, "my wife has a nice windbreaker, which I found in the market, and now it is not outdated."
the old man also told reporters that because there was a lot of things here, a lot of people would come in, even if they didn't buy things, and they also attracted a lot of outsiders. "This market has witnessed the growth of a generation for so many years, and we have witnessed our old age."
Li Hong told reporters that after moving from here, they will go on the side of the city business city, although there are less customers there, but they believe it will be better and better.
